Earthquake Education at Foley

Through going to the Kanchenjunga Region many times I have become friends with the local people. Over the last few years, I have been a guide for the volunteers of the Kanchenjunga School Project. This year I was guiding two volunteers from New Zealand when the earthquake struck. When we visited the Tibetan refugee village of Foley there was extensive damage to the building and people were very scared of future earthquakes.

We provided an impromptu earthquake education presentation to the village, which was appreciated very much.
